The Report discusses why FY27 could be a turning point for the power transmission sector, after half a decade of moderate growth. It posits near term regulatory and structural changes as essential for long-term health of the industry. Providing estimates for the capex required for fulfilling the needs of the power sector in the next six years, it calls on stakeholders to explore alternate means of capital raising. While discussing monetisation as a means of capital recycling, it highlights InvITs as an apt mode for the same. A brief elucidation of how challenges faced by InvITs are being solved creatively follows. The Report concludes by scratching the surface of the next frontier of monetisation – state TRANSCO owned InSTS assets. Some measures to accelerate this process are suggested, as well as the sheer quantum such a move could release for States.
